Al Jazeera has gained exclusive access to the Taliban in the north of Afghanistan as this report from Alan Fisher in Kabul makes clear. The Taliban has announced it is to launch a major offensive to coincide with the first day of Ramadan. Called Nasrat or victory, it is warning of an increase of suicide bombings, ambushes and attacks against the enemy. The offensive comes as the Taliban claims its gaining support outside its traditional southern strongholds. The group says it now has a foothold in Kapisa province, about 50km north of Kabul, and claims most of the district of Tagab is under its control.
